Lonnie's Service Projects

I have a new calling over Sister's Night Out. It is for the Senior Sisters who meet once a month for a fun activity and refreshments. I am also the assistant to the director of the Frankfurt Regional Choir that is putting on an International and Interdenominational Christmas Concert on December 18. At this time, I am in charge of recruiting the choir. Today I recruited about seven people, and I'm on my way to German class today where I'll have an opportunity to recruit some more. I was asked last week by the Area Presidency to edit their European Area Slide Presentation for viewing by our Salt Lake Authorities who are coming in a couple of weeks. I have a couple other things in the works relating to helping with a film class at the Frankfurt International School and volunteering at a Kinderschulle in my neighborhood. In the meantime, I have been doing a little missionary work on my own at the park next to our apartment house where a lot of high school kids and a 23-year-old hang out in the afternoons. I spent about a half hour twice last week visiting with them and they have been helping me with my German. So I made them some cookies. They are nice kids, and this week, I plan to take my ukulele over and sing with them. They really like American music. I have been taking good care of Bob, by making him yummy meals and helping him to relax by taking him on exciting adventures on the weekends.
